Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion

[ImI]

So you were previously bullish on some blind hope that such a man destroyed/lost his keys? The market hates uncertainty.

there are lots of reasons to be bullish imo, but i would prefer it to see those coins stuck vs seeing them in 2020...

....so what's up with Ripple price lately? Why is this premined crap going up again? 

I believe microsoft did some kind of incorporation of the ripple platform - kind of dumb, but what can you do?

guys relax

in 2020 you won't have to trade your bitcoins for fiat

Bullish or bearish ?

satoshi is some lone genius (albeit little-crazy eccentric (i mean he must have been)) versus he is NSA derp? I'd say crazy bullish.

I think the bullish part of the story is that the million+ Satoshi BTC stash is locked in a Trust until 2020. If this turns out to be true, (and I'm leaning toward yes) That means there is no risk of satoshi coin dump for the next 4 years at least, which is something that we couldn't say before.

the coins maybe hitting the market at 2020 would be a bearish outlook imo. a very bearish outlook.

i personally hoped that those coins got burned in the first place and may never seen selling cause the keys got destroyed.

Right, but you have to compare that scenario with the one we had before it, which was that we knew nothing about the fate of those coins, and thus the market must assume that they could show up at any time. The new reality is that they could show up at any time after 2020, which is a more bullish scenario.

hope so

this egomaniac couldn't possibly be Satoshi.

I haven't read so much from what satoshi said back in the day but from the little amount I've read, he never came across as a attention craving shady old man like this dude seems to be.

Just curious, but how did everyone get the impression that he's attention craving? I watched the videos and read the articles/emails and I didn't get that.

What did he talk about at the conference? Everyone's been so busy discussing whether he's Satoshi or not that nobody has mentioned why he went. Did he speak about a new technical solution for a problem, or something mundane? If he's unknown then who invited him to speak, and why?

If he invited himself it suggests that perhaps he's attention craving, but if someone else invite him it suggests otherwise.

He talked about a wide range of topics, but he's also got at least 2 bitcoin related companies, and he has a supercomputer that has been modeling bitcoin scalability, not to mention that he's been a proponent for bitcoin since 2009 (publicly) so he's not a nobody and it's not hard to find a reason he might be on a panel.

1000000 is less than the amount of coins produced this year. I doubt he'd dump them all at once. 2020 would be a good hear to end a 4 year bull run though.

I think there is a lot of time between now and then. A lot will change and I don't think what you are fearing will happen.

Someone sent Wired and Gizmodo a bunch of stolen documents. The source said they used to work for Wright.

You really think Satoshi is one guy? Or actually wants to be unmasked?

Like Dorian, right?

The fact that someone's throwing walls @ 420 shows how mature BTC is  yeah we got a lot of growing to do

[GreekGeek]

from where we stand now 500 doesn't look that far away does it?

who cares? ... at this point it is going to turn into the full Internet media circus you can be sure of it, nice timing given the breakout set-up

wouldn't want to be this guy right now though ... if he wants to be SN for today he's going to get all the attention he ever wanted (and more)

As I type, at this point, less than 17% appreciation of BTC price will equal  $500+   ... definitely reachable within a day, a week or by the time santa lands his sleigh on the roof.
